Doing Good

Boy, Dave is just doing great so far. He has felt well enough to eat, although not a lot. He's lost 6 lbs., but that's not uncommon. He's a little wobbly when he walks, but that too is expected. Tomorrow morning at 11:30 they will give him back his stem cells. We are really excited about that. I do have to bring some mints or something for him to suck on when he receives the cells as I guess it smells like garlic in the room, and Dave will have that taste in his mouth. YUCK! Let's pray for success and a remission! Thank you!
